Andrade "Cien" Almas: Bio

As a third-generation luchador, Andrade “Cien” Almas was born to be a Superstar, and he’s happy for it: The life suits him. Endlessly talented and even more confident, Almas particularly enjoys the perks that come with NXT Superstardom, and thanks to his crafty business associate, the fiery Zelina Vega, Almas seems destined for enjoy those niceties for a long time.

Almas’ inherent skill for the family trade was unmistakable from the moment he debuted at age 13. He first established himself in his native Mexico and Japan, capturing championships in both countries before arriving to NXT. Now a young veteran, “Cien” uses uncanny speed and ring awareness, as well as Vega’s conspicuous presence, to fluster opponents between the yellow ropes.

Though Almas’ hubris threatened to distract from his in-ring pursuits in 2017, his reunion with Vega later in the year gave way to a new and improved El Idolo. Vega’s guidance paid off at TakeOver: WarGames, where Almas scored the biggest win of his career, dethroning Drew McIntyre as NXT Champion.

With Vega by his side, there’s no denying Andrade “Cien” Almas’ ceiling is as high as any Superstar’s in WWE.
